i've been invited to donate a painting to Visual Aid for this years Big Deal art sale and fundraiser. The auction is in its 16th year and it's very important. Visual Aid is a foundation that works to encourage artists with life-threatening illnesses to continue working. the money this foundation raises is used to buy supplies, offer the artists they serve with the opportunity to take classes and workshops, and do whatever they can to make it possible for these great artists to continue to thrive and grow. i am absolutely honored to have such a wonderful opportunity to help the community i am a part of and love so very much. i am humbled and made tearful by this opportunity and i hope that if you're in the san francisco area that you can make it down to the event. it will be held the afternoon and evening of november 14th from 4-9:30 pm at SomArts in san francisco. that's only about 3 weeks from now. mark your calenders, i'd love to see you there and will be an attendance the entire night. here's the piece that will be up for grabs-
Lineage 3

if you are far away, i sincerely encourage you to take a look at Visual Aid's website and learn about the opportunities you may have to help such a noble and worthwhile cause. giving back to the community that supports us is one of the best things we can do for each other. i am so grateful.
